Ryder
fell
to
the
floor
and
grabbed
Holmes's
knees.
"Please,
have
mercy!"
he
cried.
"Think
of
my
parents!
It
would
break
their
hearts.
I
never
did
wrong
before!
I
will
never
do
it
again.
I
swear
it.
Please,
don't
take
it
to
court!"
"Get
back
into
your
chair!"
said
Holmes
sternly.
"You
beg
now,
but
you
did
not
think
of
Horner,
who
knew
nothing."
"I
will
leave,
Mr.
Holmes.
I
will
go
away.
Then
Horner
will
be
free."
"We
will
see
about
that.
Now
tell
us
what
happened.
How
did
the
stone
get
into
the
goose,
and
how
did
the
goose
go
to
the
market?
Tell
us
the
truth.
It
is
your
only
hope."
Ryder
licked
his
dry
lips.
"I
will
tell
you
what
happened,
sir,"
he
said.
"When
Horner
was
arrested,
I
thought
I
should
take
the
stone
away.
The
police
might
search
me.
There
was
no
safe
place
at
the
hotel.
I
went
to
my
sister's
house.
She
lived
on
Brixton
Road
and
sold
geese.
On
the
way,
I
thought
every
man
was
a
policeman.
I
was
sweating
when
I
got
there.
My
sister
asked
why
I
looked
pale.
I
said
the
jewel
robbery
upset
me.
I
went
to
the
yard
and
smoked,
thinking
what
to
do.
"I
knew
a
man
called
Maudsley.
He
was
a
thief
and
went
to
jail.
He
told
me
how
thieves
sell
stolen
things.
I
knew
he
would
help
me.
I
decided
to
go
to
Kilburn
where
he
lived.
He
would
show
me
how
to
sell
the
stone.
But
how
to
get
there
safely?
I
was
scared
the
police
would
search
me.
I
stood
by
the
wall
and
watched
the
geese
by
my
feet.
Then
I
had
an
idea."
"My
sister
said
I
could
have
a
goose
for
Christmas.
I
would
take
one
now
and
hide
the
stone
in
it.
There
was
a
shed
in
the
yard.
I
took
a
big
white
goose
with
a
barred
tail.
I
opened
its
beak
and
pushed
the
stone
down
its
throat.
The
bird
gulped,
and
the
stone
went
down.
But
the
bird
struggled,
and
my
sister
came
out."
"'What
are
you
doing
with
that
bird,
Jem?'
she
asked."
